NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three month period ended December 31,
1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending September 30, 1997. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1996.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Andrew Corporation set first quarter records in orders, sales, net income and
net income per share. Net sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 were
$231.7 million, an increase of 30% over the first three months of fiscal year
1996. Both U.S. and international markets drove this increase. Infrastructure
construction of personal communications services (PCS) and sales of wireless
hand set accessories contributed to the domestic sales growth, while the South
American market lead the international growth. The company's recent acquisitions
of The Antenna Company and Mapra Industria e Comercio, Ltda. and Gerbo
Telecommunicacoes, Ltda. have also contributed to the overall sales growth for
the quarter.
Cost of products sold, as a percentage of sales, was 61.2% for the first three
months of fiscal year 1997 compared to 59.6% for the first quarter of fiscal
year 1996. Increased customer demand for lower margin commercial products,
increased sales of wireless accessories products and increased price competition
were partially offset by decreased copper prices causing the growth in cost of
products sold, as a percentage of sales.
Operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased 2.5% compared to prior
year. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses remained
relatively stable, while sales and administrative expenses decreased 2.7%
compared to the same period last year, mainly due to productivity improvements
in the commercial segment. Total research and development spending
increased $2.4 million compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 1996, while
sales and administrative spending increased $5.0 million.
Net interest expense remained relatively unchanged compared to the first quarter
of fiscal year 1996. Other expense for the first quarter of fiscal year 1997
totaled $.1 million compared to $.4 million for the first three months of fiscal
year 1996. Recording the minority interest's share in the income of the
company's operations in Brazil and South Africa partially offset foreign
exchange gains resulting in a slight improvement in other expense for the first
quarter of fiscal year 1997 when compared to the same period last year.
<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash from operations increased $29.6 million compared to the first quarter of
fiscal year 1996. Collections of strong fourth quarter fiscal year 1996 sales,
higher first quarter net income and decreased inventory levels in the commercial
business segment were responsible for the increased liquidity.
Cash used in investing activities decreased $20.6 million to $12.8 million for
the quarter. Capital spending for the first quarter of fiscal year 1997 totaled
$11.5 million compared to $14.1 million for the same period last year. In the
first quarter of fiscal year 1996, the company purchased a majority interest in
Mapra Industria e Comercio, Ltda. and Gerbo Telecommunicacoes e Servicos, Ltda.
for $14.5 million, net of cash received.
Cash from financing activities, for the quarter, increased $5.5 million compared
to the same period last year. This increase is attributable to increased stock
option activity and funds borrowed for the construction of a cable manufacturing
plant in Sorocaba, Brazil.
